scholz, the german government was delaying this issue . this question gives the way olafsholtz , the chancellor of germany, explained his decision today to the legislators and citizens of germany in the bundestag today in berlin, because in our country there are many citizens who concerned about this decision and what such a weapon will mean and so i would like to say to these citizens now trust me trust the federal government we will continue because we are acting in international coordination to make sure that such assistance is possible without increasing the risks to our country from some unexpected side here why are we doing this and will continue to do so bohdana in washington says that leopards are ideal tanks for ukraine at this stage of the war and in particular they play a key role in a potential counteroffensive by the ukrainians and chi will there be enough of them and will they arrive on the battlefield on time in terms of the number of a-a germans eh, the chancellor of germany and his minister of defense announced that now in the first batch from germany in ukraine, 14

chancellor olafsholtz used this term to germany after the full-scale attack of russia on ukraine to announce radical turnaround in the security and politics of the country. how the war changed germany and its relations with ukraine tetiana logunova will tell kyiv and berlin met 2022 with a taste of uncertainty in germany , the chancellor has just changed instead of angela merkel, who ruled the country at the age of 16, the social democrat love scholz came to power, so in the ukrainian government offices they analyzed, predicted and wondered what to expect from the new leader, especially against the background of levies russian troops to the border with ukraine mid-february, the first official meeting between olef scholz and volodymyr zelenskyi on february 14, 10 days before russia's full-scale attack on ukraine the german chancellor arrives in kyiv footage of the visit as if from a past life boryspil airport, the pre-war peaceful capital volodymyr zelenskyi meets a guest not familiar with khakis and in a dark business suit schultz still hopes that putin will come to his senses and the territ

statements from the german government, not everyone was as careful about a potential transfer as olafsholtz. can this topic reveal the problems within the german private coalition and how it can turn out, well, yulia, we can already say that this issue has revealed different views or different rhetoric. well, for example, if mrs. anna lena burke said that berlin would not object to the transfer of polish tanks to ukraine, but it can be said that the head of the chancellor, the head of the german government did not say the word tanks and ukraine in the same sentence, neither in paris nor this weekend, nor in davos. last week, they also expected this from him. that is, the german chancellor tries not to talk about it, they say that he says something behind closed doors. but again, this is speculation, and here we should remember that the german government is a coalition of several parties, and while olafsholz is a representative of social - of the democratic party of germany with certain traditions and, by the way, with certain worldview traditions and with certain views on russia, analina be

forces prompted the pentagon to increase production, the goal is to produce 90,000 shells per month, olafsholtzhe chancellor of germany agreed to the transfer of leopard battle tanks to ukraine - this is finally took place after many months of discussions with the allies, there were about 100 leopard tanks in total, they promised to provide ukraine with 12 rammstein countries, in particular poland , finland, denmark, the netherlands and spain in addition to today the bundestag will consider the issue of possible deliveries of germany's leopard tanks to ukraine, the tanks will make a breakthrough , the institute for the study of war came to the conclusion that the transfer of main battle tanks to ukraine with its western allies will allow the ukrainian army to defeat the russian military and liberate all territories of ukraine, the analysts of the institute previously reminded the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhny stressed that ukraine needs 300 tanks so that the ukrainians can counter-offensive, and joint military operations are ongoing in belarus military exerci

davos are expecting more than 50 heads of state and government, in particular , german chancellor olafsholtznd polish president angers and duda will visit the forum, but the main topic of the meeting is the economic forum for the second year in a row will become russian aggression against ukraine and its economic consequences for the world . to russia, they are told there in ukraine, people are dying , children are dying, they are telling them about it. and they say that everything is clear, and who knew what he was doing, where are we going to get money? at that time, probably few people in the hall believed in the western embargo against russia. today, this is a reality in 2023 ukraine . will obviously require weapons and a real plan for post-war reconstruction, the planned speeches of zelenskyi and many ukrainian officials, mainly via video link , will traditionally work and the ukrainian house, at the opening of which will speak, in particular, victims of the russian peace, those who survived the occupation and filtering camps 2,700 forum participants , most of whom paid from 70 to 300 t

they also report that, after all, the german government is ready, its olafsholtz, to give other countries, permission to - export of leopard tanks in ukraine knows that today germany received an official request from poland for the transfer of these tanks to ukraine. well, i wonder what could actually change the opinion of olaf scholze, who resisted this decision for so long. it is possible that today the media also reported that there were reports that the united states are considering the possibility of transferring abrams battle tanks to ukraine and also france is thinking of transferring battle tanks to ukraine looks at its partners, although it already looked like germany remained in principle an absolutely solitary and isolated position, and the position of the government was criticized here, even personally, in fact, everyone, representatives of the german government and the opposition, the press and expert circles and international partners , so it was clear that german tanks they will go to ukraine. and why was all this necessary? i 'm sorry, the circus, so that it doesn't spoil

days ago with an unequivocal refusal to supply combat aircraft to ukraine , the german chancellor olafsholtz spoke, but the french president emmanuel macron unequivocally and did not give an answer, he noted that in principle, nothing is prohibited, france is even ready to consider the possibility of training ukrainian fighter pilots. paris and will discuss with a french colleague the equipment that france will probably transfer to ukraine, in particular, it will be about air defense means, i will remind you yesterday the president of france, emmanuel macron, did not rule out the supply of fighter jets to ukraine, stating that in principle nothing is prohibited, the russians were again actively attacking sumy oblast, as reported in the sumy regional military administration , 11 flights were recorded during the day, the invaders fired mortars at the bilopol community from artillery, in addition to the russians dropped eight explosive devices of the wog type from drones on the velikopisary community, according to preliminary data, in all cases there were no victims and of destruction, russian

the only news how ukraine will respond to putin with a powerful armada of western tanks this week olafsholtzanks to ukraine, for which we have to thank the white house, scholtz refused to do it without the americans, demanding that washington join the tank coalition with its abrams. and this week, after months of negotiations, pressure on berlin and of other countries' ultimatums - it happened first , joe biden's retribution ukraine will receive from the usa 31 abrams is talking about the latest, most intelligent version of this m1 a2 tank, writes an influential edition of the politician it is even more on the stove with super modern electronics than its predecessors, although it is true that when exactly these abrams will reach ukraine, the americans are not yet ready to say, but the key thing is not even that. after the decision of washington , the chancellor of germany no longer had any arguments against it for the armed forces of ukraine, this opens up incredible prospects because the leopard -2 is in many european countries, that is, we have it by our side , and so, after the permission

is here and it will begin, we will understand that biden reacted to this quite clearly and even olafsholtzery clearly answered one abram exactly m1 , the other leopards, others except medvedev, we we no longer hear that someone stutters from the closest to putin, a member of the same safety site of permanent members for a month and a half already. he changed his position in relation to the patron , well, let him always consider him a trusted close person , he also obeyed all the rules. he left in the 12th year and gave way to the master of the office. these relations between putin and medvedev owe medvedev a lot more than anyone else. putin , in general, is a step towards favoritism, in principle, yes , it encourages someone, it motivates it, it punishes it, on the contrary , it forgives it, we have already seen it. eh, called the hero, she gave me another name, that is, she gave me a reward, and she gave me today , then it fell out of him. returning, but thanks to comrades, the army corporation. well, and so on , and so on. everything he thinks, well, he is not dressed, it was once, remem

fact, he belongs to the center-left social democratic party of germany, as does chancellor dmytro olafsholtz, and here it is also interesting that he represents the history of uh, conventional western germany, which, well, the position has historically developed like this, treats the russian federation somewhat differently than, say, the representatives of the east of germany, which you personally , you expect a decision in the near future from history, all taking into account that in two days there will be a meeting that will be in the format of rammstein. and you know, in history, he once made statements that say that he is clearly on the side of ukraine, and he had enough radical, sometimes not radical, statements in the sense that ukraine needs to be helped quickly so that ukraine can win, so i have quite positive expectations for boris, the story is all a-he is really from west germany and this is the wing eh sdp en eh which eh which which is still more on the side of eh well there are enough positives about the european forces eh accordingly i think he will be on the side of ukraine an

the question will germany supply battle tanks without the usa e podstorius noted that chancellor olafsholtzssing with us president joe biden, i am absolutely sure, said the minister, that we will receive a decision on this issue in the next few days, but today i cannot tell you what it will look like, said minister natalya humenyuk, the leader is joining correctly despite the powerful storm yesterday it was reported that the enemy continues to keep a significant group of ships in the black sea, please detail what this is now. and yes, the storm continues, it has decreased a little, but this kind of excitement may again change is the weather of this season, it is typical , nevertheless, the enemy ship group in the black sea today consists of 11 photo-catalys ships, of which six missiles have carriers, including two submarines, and the total number continues to be 40 missiles, and this may indicate that keeping this group on combat duty can speak of preparation for a massive missile attack. although single strikes are not excluded, because calibers are high-precision weapons that are used on

battery patriot, the president of the united states, joe biden, and the chancellor of germany, olafsholtz, after telephone talks, announced a joint package of military aid to ukraine, this is stated on the official website of the white house, in particular, the united states will transfer infantry fighting vehicles to bradley, and germany made a new military aid package worth 3 billion dollars, which will include fifty bradley, the united states will make public today the president of ukraine thanked both leaders for the decision to strengthen our defense earlier volodymyr zelenskyy told the united states congress that dozens billions of dollars in aid not charity, but investment in global security, the united nations disbanded the mission that documented the killing of ukrainian soldiers of the volyn region, un secretary general antónio guterres decided so, among the reasons the mission did not receive the necessary security guarantees from both sides, we did not stop moving for five months this is quite a long time we tried we were constantly in touch and insisted but this is a delicate

until now, when it came to armed support for ukraine, the german government, or rather chancellor olafsholtzl democratic party, did everything to slow down and slow down the process of adoption decisions, however, currently the pressure on the german government has really increased, since the demands are no longer just from ukraine, but from nato allies and the european union, so we hope that germany will still change its decision at least until the end of next week, when the meeting will be held again is the coordination council for the armed support of ukraine at the ramstein airbase and perhaps then it will be heard that such german tanks will go to ukraine, we hope, but thank you natalochko, we hope natalia fibrik from germany about why the government of this the country still did not dare to give permission for the supply of such tanks, which we now need, thank you, the reports are not true. this is how the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine denied the news that kyiv asked not to impose sanctions on belarus, the radio correspondent reported with reference to sources in brussels svob

from among the glories of velika the seven are present this time, only one chancellor of germany, olafsholtz, nor rishi sunok, nor joe biden, was added, did not come, why does the viewer analyze the politico edition, suzanne lynch chelsing, interestingly, every year, sunok is one of the many leaders who decided to stay away from this year's world economic forum , only one representative of the group of seven is here this year olafshol from the chancellor of germany he was the main speaker last year and here he is again , there are very few representatives of asia, but the president of south africa is present, many european leaders, for example the president of poland and figures such as the secretary general of nato and jens toltenberg. i think two factors influenced this. first, there has been criticism for a long time that the davoz is considered a symbol of the elites of the gap between the rich and the poor, and the crisis of the cost of living only strengthened this. there is also a feeling that other forms have moved the davoz, for example security forum in munich that took place in fe

not a conversation and not so disrespect and to you and to our guest so we will now recruit him olafsholtz, at the end of this year i lost half of his ranking i do not know whether it can be said directly and only with only with because there in ukraine was not provided with those types of weapons that germany could provide, because let's not forget that germany started this war by providing ukraine with 400 protective shields for the armed forces of ukraine, 400 helmets, this must be remembered forever, and now we will receive from germany, let's say, systems of anti-aircraft defense yes uh and uh armored car they also received a panzerga panzer howitzer also i am now returning to us mr. mykhailo i p mykhailo please continue i think that i will not repeat the question please a in such cases, our first reaction is always the following. here is olaf-shol. this or any other leader of a western state is afraid to provide ukraine with weapons due to some relations with putin or fear of russia or something else, i would like to say right away what it is not always the right reaction and not alw

this minister of economy and minister of foreign affairs. on our broadcast, but in particular , olafsholtzirectly spoke about what was indicated that he does not want to act alone in this story of the tank coalition, that he said that first the united states should speak with the abrams, then we will speak with our leopards, but hm, i wonder why abrams directly, the government of the united states of america says that these are too expensive tanks, it is difficult to train on them, in particular , they are gas turbines, that is why we currently do not have a question about their transfer to ukraine. now i am transferring you from the german vector to the americans responded with a sarcastic response to his accusation that the americans will deliver tanks first, and then the leopard will follow. the germans, er, the americans said that each country should make decisions individually and not pay attention to how the americans will act. the americans are actually the biggest sponsors and provide the biggest military aid . er, but they are also conducting negotiations in parallel with the war,

ukraine, but berlin will not go to such a step was announced independently by german chancellor olafsholtze day before, the politika publication wrote that france, together with poland, is trying to convince germany to unblock the supply of leopard 2 battle tanks to ukraine, since the manufacturer of these tanks is a german company, so their shipment to ukraine requires permission from the country of manufacture in this case from germany, and germany, judging by chancellor schulz's statement today, is looking back at its nato allies. i would like to make it clear that we will consider this issue in the coming days of the week and months germany will not resort to independent steps germany will always be united with its friends and allies especially with our transatlantic partner the united states of america everything else would be irresponsible in such a dangerous situation so tanks for the supply of heavy modern western tanks until recently . a real taboo was imposed, they didn’t even talk about it, now the discussions have intensified, especially in the last month. but as of now, no cou

to other countries, according to the official statement of the government of ukraine, chancellor olafsholtz noted that the decision was made in coordination with international partners, as you know, poland, spain and norway have already agreed to supply part of their leopards to ukraine. the mass media also report on a similar decision by portugal to train ukrainian crews should begin in the near future in germany, in addition to training, the german aid package will also include logistics, ammunition and maintenance of combat vehicles. established themselves on pre-prepared defense lines, said the spokesman of the eastern group, serhii cherevaty, the main reason for saving lives personnel, according to cherevatoy, the ukrainian defenders created a real feat by destroying the russians when the enemy was outnumbered by 3-5 times, because they started for soledar at the beginning of january, the russians directed the main attack there and called its capture the key to the further encirclement of bakhmut, a historic meeting pope francis met with a delegation of the all-ukrainian council of chu

weapons for ukraine. exactly and when ukraine will be able to liberate with new weapons and when olafsholtz will finally release the leopards, the wagnerites are a key component of the war against ukraine. this is what the british ministry of defense believes, according to the assessment of the department on the fronts in up to 50,000 mercenaries of a private military company are currently involved in ukraine. previously, one of them fled to norway and is now asking for political asylum in the eu. we will talk about ukraine literally in a few minutes, and while we remember what help they promised to provide even before ramstein, international partners promised to provide large-scale military aid to ukraine, and this is a few dozens of types of equipment and hundreds of thousands of ammunition for some countries, these aid packages announced yesterday became a record, which weapons may soon arrive in the armed forces and which countries have joined the support in the material of maxim grabovsky as part of a new package of military aid from the usa 53 mrip armored personnel carriers against m
